Kalmar Castle



Kalmar Castle, located near the site of Kalmar's medieval harbor, has played a crucial part in Swedish history since its initial construction as a fortified tower in the 12th century. King Magnus LadulĂĄs ordered the construction of a fortress around the tower in the 1280s, and was further expanded in the centuries that followed.
